Winters' Magical Spice

One of the more aromatic and pungent spice mixtures from India is garam masala. This wonderful mixture of toasted dry spices has been used throughout India for centuries and is highly valued in East Indian Ayurvedic tradition for whole body balancing through foods.

Winter is the season when this magical mixture offers the most support for our bodies. As the weather turns colder, this delightful warming spice reduces cravings by combining six basic tastes: sweet, sour, salty, bitter, pungent, and astringent.
